Nelson = Uyland Fight
Will Be a Battle Royal
By C K Van Loan
Now York May 16The rising
young editor Oscar It B Nelson of
Llegewlsch Ill Is soon to have a
hawgwrasslo with one of Jils prom 1
inent subscribers Long before Mr
Nelson became an editor a tough cit j j
Izcn named Dick Hyland was on his I
trail He sa r some of Mr Nelsons I
pieces In the paper and seldom agreed
with them answering through the I
columns of the dally press in the atti
tude of Verltas and Constant Reader
The meeting has been arranged and
it must go over the Marathon course I
This may turn out to be a bad piece i
of editing for Mr Nelson for if there j
is one thing which suits H land down I
to his stubby Cornish toes it Is a
chance to battle until the cows come
Lome I
It has been some time since tho 1
young editor has had a real fight Ills
lost advertised appearance was
against Joe Gans the Old Master and i
an before he laid Joseph away in the I
pugilistic morgue Tho second fight j
with Cans gave Nelson the light
weight championship of the world
the third tIght proved that the second
one had not been a fluke
Gans Had Shot His Bolt
Then JOG Cans came to New York
and In a miserable battle with Jabe
White proved that whatever he may I
have been when he fought Nelson tho
third time xt present ho is no more I
than a pitiful shadow of the man who
was one of tho greatest fighters of the
ageIf
If Too was no better than this
whon Nelson beat him where does
Nelson get off
One thing Is certain If Nelson Is
to be whipped a tough headtohcad
mauler with little or no science and
tho stamina to go tho long route has
more chance to trim tho champion
than a clover man ever had Clover
men were made to order for the hard
headed little Dane The cleverer
they were and the faster they fought
him the sooner came the lotdown
tho resulting spurt on Nelsons part
and then the melancholy eight nine
youre out He fought em allthe
clever men with tho punch the clev
er itfen without tho punch and the
men who had nothing but tho punch
and he weathered the whole fleet
This time Nelson is to meet a man I
who fights exactly the same style or I
a battle Not since he fought Eddie
Hanlon has the champion been pitted
against the same typo of a fighter as
himself Nelson fights with his head
down and nltches around the ring
with one foot braced behind him Hy
land drops his shock head and comes
in like a llttte bull working both
hands to the body like piston rods
He is not clever a clever man has I
never had any trouble in keeping out
of Hylands way and making a mark
of him at longrange work Hyland
likes the shoulder to shoulder work
and In Nelson he meets a man who
docs not fight any other way
It would seem that this fight would
bo one grand executive session from
start to finish and the result will turn
upon endurance under severe punish
ment to the body and the stamina
which keeps a man on his feet and
fighting when every nerve in his body
is crying out for rest Both boys like
the long route Neither flinches un
der punishment nor has a suspicion
of a streak
WAS FITZ REALLY PUT OUT
Was Hanging Helpless On the Ropes
But Maher Did Not Finish Him
By John L Sillllvan famous old
Champion of Champions
San Diego May 15Thc many
questions which arise on what consti
tutes a knockout remind mo of one
noted ring battle which took place in
New Orleans in 1892 when Peter Ma
her met Bob FItzsImmons who was
then a champion as the year before
he had practically ended Jack Demp
scys career and broken his heart by
knocking tho Nonpareil out
Maher was right in his prime and
ono of the finest specimens of a fight
er who was over raised on tho Old
Sod and he had a good record for a
youngster with a bunch of knockouts
to his credit and he could hit some
Fllzslmmons was a big favorite and
his seven years advantage in age
ovor Maher was also considered
something in his favor
Fitz cracked Peter a smash on his

mouth right off the reel which split
him almost to his eyes but the Irish
man was game and let go ono of his
noted haymakers It caught Fitz
squarely on the head and tho Corn
wall slugger was shot back across the
entire breadth of tho ring in a help
less condition his hands hanging and I
his heels the only part of his feet I
resting on tho mat Professor Duffer
who was officiating at all tho big fights
at tho time was the third man in
the ring and began to count while
bedlam relgnoth Confusion held swa
In the ring and out while Fit tot
tered on his heels with his toes point
ing up in the air and Fitz reaped the
benefit
Mahers friends always contended
that Fitzsimmons was knocked out
fairly according to tho Queeusberry
rules which state that if a mans toes
pare off tho ground and he Is In a help
less state he occupies the same posl
tiqn as if he was prone on the mat
and unable to rise
Tho rule on which Dialer claimol
his contention of scoring a knockout
was as follows A man hanging on
the ropes in d helpless state with his
toes off tho ground shall be consid I
ered down

Is well known as Fitzsimmons finish
